Predicting Adherence to Computer-Based Cognitive Training Programs Among Older Adults Using Source-Free Domain Adaptation: Algorithm Development and Validation.

BACKGROUND: Cognitive decline in the aging population presents an unprecedented challenge worldwide. Recent research has shown the potential of cognitive training programs to mitigate cognitive decline. However, these interventions require sustained adherence to be effective, which can be challenging. OBJECTIVE: In this study, we aim to enhance the accuracy of predicting adherence patterns in cogn...

Text-guided automatic segmentation of clinical target volume in rectal cancer radiotherapy.

OBJECTIVE: Current automatic segmentation models in radiotherapy, which are predominantly unimodal and image-based, have limited generalizability due to boundary ambiguity and the lack of guideline integration. This study proposes a text-guided segmentation network, termed TG-SegNet, for the automatic delineation of clinical target volumes (CTVs) in rectal cancer radiotherapy. APPROACH: Data from ...
